Angel Lyrics & Chords By Joe Jackson

Here's a young one: Hey Rufus, how's the rain on the rhubarb?

You wanna go out with me?
(Yeah, I know, we're out
it's, like, a figure of speech)
All you need is a real girl guide
Give it up and come inside
Slip the leash, shake it loose
Bite the peach, suck the juice

...What did you call me? (Angel...)
What was that again? (Angel...)

Ave gloriosa virginum regina
Vitis generosa, vite medicina
Clemencie resina
Ave copiosa gracie piscina
Carnis maculosa mund' illum sentina
Mundicie cortina

Hey chicken, is that your girl?
Bet she lays like a lump
What's your poison - lemonade?
Velveteen or a razor blade?
You wanna walk in the dark with me
To a place where no-one sees?
Kiss the glove, pretty please
You wanna pray?
On your knees...
...What did you call me (Angel...)
Say it again (Angel...)

Claritate radiosa, stella matutina
Brevitate legis glossa
Perte lex divina
Irradiat doctrina
Venustate vernans rosa
Sine culpa spina
Caritate viscerosa, aurem huc inclina
Serves ill'a ruina

Hey sailor
How's the steam in the stovepipe?
